We flew here yesterday and the weather has been perfect, even a little too warm at 80 degrees when we arrived. Today is gorgeous with bright blue skies, high 70's and light wind. We took advantage of the good weather and did the guided kayak tour in Ding Darling Wildlife Preserve this morning. We didn't learn anything new from the guide and the tour was crowded. It turns out you are allowed to take the rental boats anywhere in or around Tarpon Bay, so we could have paddled the trail through the mangroves by ourselves. We'll remember that for next time and just rent boats. But we still enjoyed the paddle
and did see a yellow-crowned night heron that we probably would have missed if we'd been alone.
We are staying at Casa Ybel Resort this time and it is very nice. Our room is on the top floor center sticking out at the top left in this picture.
I had forgotten that this is where the pelicans hang out, in the trees right in front of our unit.
